Need more time...
So I just got a 82' sx400S that the PO said had some issues. He said the bike had a power drain somewhere and that the bike would stop running once the battery went dead. then he messed up the timing tinkering with the points so now it won't start.
My initial plan is to get this thing started then check the charging system. The timing cover is off and the PO apparently undid the two bolts and rotated the plate that has 3 nuts on the backside. He said that he wasn't sure how to put it back on. Does the rotation matter? If so, how do I get it back? Picture is attached.
As for the discharge:
All the wiring looks legit so I wonder if it could be either the regulator or something in the charging system.
Also there is a random tube sticking out. Should that go somewhere?
Lastly, he had the idle adjustment backed out all the way. Is there a good default position to start it at to get the bike started easier.
